A New Way to Bid
Bidding just got easier and more fun. With BidPal, you will place your bids on a handheld
device configured especially for Surf’s Up. Bids are transmitted electronically, so there
are no bid sheets. You can bid on an item from across the room or from one room to
the next. You can track your bids, view item descriptions, categories and more on
BidPal. You can set a maximum bid for an item, and BidPal will automatically bid you up
in increments. If someone outbids you, BidPal will let you know, and you can increase
your maximum bid. And if you are unsuccessful in bidding but still want to support the
Grace Church School Scholarship Fund, you can make a cash donation on BidPal!

Message from the Chief Hotdogger
Kowabunga! We are excited to welcome you to the annual search for the perfect wave
of funds for the Endowment for Financial Aid. This year the beach is packed with hot
items ready for you to hang ten or more on. Whether you want to experience the thrill
of surfing live in the gym or prefer the quieter stroll on the silent auction beach there
will be something for everyone.
This year we will have the extra thrill of riding the virtual wave with our hand held
devices. It is going to be way cool, man. There will be the old favorites of the live auction
and I hope to avoid a major wipe out while doing my usual stunts.
The beach bar will be full of high-octane fun, to help bring out your inner Beach Boy or
Gidget complete with good vibrations and fun, fun, fun.
We should let it all hang out in congratulating the whole crew who has brought us to the
water’s edge. They have been hard at work clearing the beach and readying the bay for
the day that the waves roll in.
Now is the time to get on your board and take your paddle out into the deep water. It is
time to stand up and catch a wave for keeping GCS the leader in financial aid. Our
financial aid waves are two and three times the size of other JK-8 schools in the city
because of all that you have splashed through in the past. I can see another set of big
ones on the horizon, so get ready to ride. The surf is up for GCS. Be true to your school
and let the bidding begin!
